Beyond Red Roses: Finding Real Romance in February by Josie Riviera

Let's be honest—Valentine's Day can be tricky. While store windows overflow with hearts and candy, real romance often looks different from those picture-perfect cards and commercials.

Some of my favorite love stories are wonderfully ordinary. The couple who still holds hands after forty years of marriage. The grandmother who bakes heart-shaped cookies with her grandkids every February. The sisters who've made Valentine's Day their annual movie marathon tradition, complete with popcorn and fuzzy socks.

These real-life moments remind me why I love a good romance story. Not for the grand gestures, but for the authentic connections—the kind that make you smile and remind you that love comes in many forms.

Looking for some heartwarming stories this February? Treat yourself to Valentine Hearts, a collection of four sweet romances that capture the magic of finding love when you least expect it. It's like having a box of chocolates, but instead of finishing them too quickly, you can savor each story one at a time.
